• 2

  Start by shampooing your client with the Kerasilk Control Purifying Shampoo.

• 3

  Then, using your hands or a paddle brush, dry hair up to 80 percent.

• 4

  Next, mix up your formulas depending on your client’s hair type and desired outcome, using an equal ratio of shape to smooth.

   

  Pro Tip: If your client’s hair is diverse, you can work with various formulas! For example, the regrowth could be treated with Shape Medium/Smooth Medium and the midlengths and ends with Shape Medium/Smooth Intense. See graph below:

   

  Suggested Amount	Kerasilk Control Keratin Medium	Kerasilk Control Keratin Intensive
  Short Hair	20ml./0.7 oz.	20ml./0.7 oz.
  Medium Hair	30ml./1.1 oz.	30ml./1.1 oz.
  Long Hair	40ml./1.4 oz.	40ml./1.4 oz.

  Use a brush and start applying the product at the nape, making sure your sections are less than a 1/4 inch.

• 6

  Then, use a brush and dry the hair 100 percent. Continue your process by flat-ironing the hair. Make sure your iron is at least 350 degrees.

   

  Pro Tip: When the hair is treated with a high temperature, a color shift may occur. A test section may be performed at the nape. If needed, reduce the temperature of the iron accordingly. Do not go below 350 degrees °F / 180 degrees °C. See graph below:
  

   

  Hair Type	Max Iron Temperature
  Resistant & Normal	450 °F / 230 °C
  Color	390 °F / 200 °C
  High-lift Color	350 °F / 180 °C
